From Our Coaches

As mothers, we are given many things on Mother’s Day – some we can’t stomach like raw egg on bread! We are given cards, posters, “best mum ever” mugs. massages and facials. But is it what we really want deep down?

The women I know have chosen or settled for specific roles so as not to feel guilty walking out of the office at 4pm. Roles in which they won’t be expected to attend 8am meetings, or meetings that finish at 6pm, or drinks and dinners with key stakeholders that may keep them away from their families on weeknights. Does it have to be like that?

In this series, we introduce you to our panel of FlexCoaches, each who offer a complimentary 30-minute chemistry session to our community. This week we meet Julie Lines who is passionate and committed to helping people achieve personal and professional growth.

Face your Fears – and make real progress towards your work dreams! This next blog from the ‘Reboot Your Confidence’ series by Kate Wilkie and Debra Close explores our inner fears and shows us how we can overcome them.

FlexCareers continues to bring our community a great choice of career and life coaches. In this blog, we meet FlexCoach Rebecca Grainger who, combining her personal experiences with her sheer passion for helping others, makes women feel empowered to achieve their goals.

We are hard-wired to formulate impressions each time we see something, hear something, read something and meet someone. This is no different when it comes to applying for jobs. It is easy for most of us to communicate and most of us would say we are good at it. However, when applying for a job and during an interview, how you relay your message to the other person is considered an ‘art’.

The reality is that we all have parts of work and life that we want to change – it cant be “perfect” all the time. And that’s true! Trying to have someone else’s idea of balance just isn’t going to work.

‘I can imagine some of you may be thinking, ‘How on earth can I put time and energy into focussing on my own well-being when I already have so much on my plate?’ With some guidance, it can be a simple process’.

In this series, we introduce you to our panel of FlexCoaches, each who offer a complimentary 30-minute chemistry session to our community. This week we meet Shannon Young who is passionate about helping individuals re-engage with the passion that drives them at home and at work.

Have you ever met someone who seems to be buoyant with optimism and wish you were more like them? I have and it had left me feeling rather ‘meh’. But what if it didn’t need to be the case? FlexCoach Kate Wilkie tells why the ‘Inside Out’ movie can teach us how to be optimistic on demand.
